Highly recommend!" - Brittany B., Booking Manager" Based in Harrisonburg, Virginia (185 miles from Raleigh) Brittany B. - Massanutten Resort Photo of The Music of Lennon & McCartney The Music of Lennon & McCartney "We hired Jon to perform at our 16 y/o son’s birthday party. Our son is a big Beatles fan. Jon knocked it out of the park! He was a hit with our guests of all ages. My son was on Cloud Nine as Jon played a wide range of his favorite Beatles songs. We very much enjoyed watching and listening to him sing and we plan on coming to see him wherever he’s playing in the future! - Ron & Carrie W., Avondale PA" Based in Hanover, Maryland (259 miles from Raleigh) Ron & Carrie W, Avondale PA Photo of Gary Strickland Gary Strickland "Gary has done a few events for me as I am a club advisor to students in college. I would say he is all about performing arts, except for the fact that he is just as good with customer service, and interactions on a business level! If he says he'll do something, he follows through with absolute professionalism. Mr. Strickland has been a solo performer on the trumpet, a singer, an EMCEE, a set designer , a professional photographer and crowd pleaser. Should anything unexpected happen, he has the experience and sharp reactions to handle a burgeoning situation without a hitch. I wish I had the time to simply listen to Gary perform outside of the venues for which I have hired him. Maureen Vendeville Professor, ESL Faculty Advisor National Technical Honor Society" Based in Savannah, Georgia (291 miles from Raleigh) Maureen Vendeville - National Technical Honor Society Photo of Miss Julie Bryce Miss Julie Bryce "Wow, I love it! It’s a wild ride and sometimes it seems to be laughing at the listener… then there are the boats of jazzy pillows that carry you across the rapids. Very cool" Based in Knoxville, Tennessee (296 miles from Raleigh) Lydia Nicole - Private
